Nice feature

Science has a problem. The integrity of research is increasingly threatened by a deluge of fabricated publications. Estimates suggest that in some fields, as many as 5–15% of all papers may be fake. Artificial intelligence has further accelerated this practice.

@brewster.kahle.org and @murchstudio.com from @internetarchive.eu visited DATA LOSS (@erc.europa.eu) and The Danish Royal Library in September. Now a great interview has come out of it w @marcelfard.bsky.social and @moltke.bsky.social! Listen here [the interview is in UK]: www.dr.dk/lyd/special-...

With the AWS outage, now‘s as good a time as any to post this old strip.

Har først nu fået læst denne analyse af @moltke.bsky.social, men den forklarer rigtig godt hvad problemet var med forslaget. Og det er altså lidt skræmmende hvis den danske regering på den måde promoverer lovforslag ud fra en komplet forkert forståelse af hvordan teknologien fungerer.

[dk]Tyskerne slagter #ChatControl: "Den danske regering har trukket forslaget tilbage fra afstemning, og begge ministerier understregede i udvalget, at de – ligesom mange andre EU-lande – ikke støtter det danske oplæg i den foreliggende form." www.bundestag.de/presse/hib/k...

'You'll never need to work again': Criminals offer reporter money to hack BBC. I recently got offered millions of pounds to give cyber criminals from the Medusa gang my BBC login. I played along to learn about how these 'insider threat' deals work. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"If the EU ends up legislating [about encryption] on a technically incorrect basis, we could be left with a law that neither protects children nor citizens' right to privacy – but instead makes everyone more vulnerable" @moltke.bsky.social writes. www.dr.dk/nyheder/vide...

[dk] Justitsministeren hævdede i Prompt, at man kan lave undtagelser i kryptering, og at Apple og Meta *kan* læse brugernes krypterede samtaler, men nægter at hjælpe med at fjerne overgrebsmateriale fra dem. Begge dele er forkert. Min analyse: www.dr.dk/nyheder/vide...

Pretty incredible that Jeff Bezos' Amazon announced a "$5 billion-plus" partnership w/ a Saudi AI co launched by Mohammed Bin Salman and sent CEO Andy Jassy to meet with him less than 7 years after MBS murdered Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for Bezos' Washington Post. techcrunch.com/2025/05/13/a...

Our latest investigation, with @tjekdet.dk , @politiken.dk and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) reveals the real identity of the man behind Mr Deepfake, the notorious site where non-consensual deepfake pornography is published www.bellingcat.com/news/2025/05...

There are people I know in the national security community who are terrified that the US government is sleepwalking into a 9/11-level catastrophe. Focusing finite resources on nonsense like this instead of credible threats -- that is the reason they're so worried. www.wsj.com/world/greenl...

[dk] WSJ: USA har beordret sine efterretningstjenester til at intensivere spionage i Grønland. Fokus er på uafhængighedsbevægelsen og støtte til amerikansk ressourceudvinding. Ordren, initieret af Trumps administration, er et konkret skridt mod ønsket om at overtage øen www.wsj.com/world/greenl...

I try not to overhype this stuff, but this might be the biggest government opsec failure in history.

New from 404 Media: the Signal clone the Trump administration uses was just hacked. TeleMessage makes a modified version of Signal that archives messages for government agencies, Waltz used it. A hacker got some users' messages, group chats. Hugely significant breach www.404media.co/the-signal-c...

For background see NYTimes story below. TeleMessage, an app built by Israeli developers to archive Signal messages, was acquired by an Oregon company. That company says Signal msgs it archives for US-based Signal users stay in US and don't go to Israel. But hardcoded credentials raise new concern

Updated with a statement from Signal about the forked version the US government is using to archive messages: “We cannot guarantee the privacy or security properties of unofficial versions of Signal.” www.404media.co/mike-waltz-a...

Hey, journalists! The official @signal.org app does not archive your chats to a cloud server as TeleMessage’s product does, but proceed with caution when talking to a government source who may be using a third-party Signal app like TM’s without understanding what that entails.

New: We analyzed Trump's meme coin - At least 27 crypto wallets have picked up $100 million worth of $TRUMP coins since his team said the top holders would join him for an "intimate private dinner." Huge profit for Trump; "the most brazenly corrupt thing a President has ever done" wapo.st/4iAatO1

THREAD: When @thekrebscycle.bsky.social and his workplace, @sentinelone.com, were singled out by Donald Trump on Wednesday, I thought it was an opportunity to weigh the cybersecurity industry's rhetoric against their real world actions.

My old friend @nannathylstrup.bsky.social on how the Trump administration has deleted government datasets, critical health guidelines and public records and how this threatens public health, historical knowledge, and democratic accountability. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/o...

The Plot to Take Greenland “We need Greenland for national security and even international security, and we’re working with everybody involved to try and get it,” Trump said. “One way or the other, we’re going to get it." By Michael Crowley and Maggie Haberman www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

Trump signs presidential memo revoking any security clearance held by former CISA Director Chris Krebs and suspending clearances held by any employees of @sentinelone.com where Krebs works. Krebs famously rumbled with Trump over latter's election fraud claims in 2020 before Trump fired him by tweet

Det var “Tim Apple” der på mange måder indledte strategien med at kysse Trumps 🍑 og lade som om han er et geni, der kan rulle globaliseringen tilbage i tandpastatuben. Mon ikke han fortryder nu? 9to5mac.com/2025/04/08/t...

[dk] Prøvede at vurdere sandsynligheden for at Trumps toldplan delvist var udarbejdet af en chatbot(!)

Can anyone explain something to me? I’ve seen a lot of speculation that the EU might retaliate Trumps taxes by targeting “big tech”. But how would that work when big tech, for tax and ownership purposes, are sold as European services? Amazon is in Luxembourg; Apple, Meta, Google etc in Ireland.

“Trump’s demands that Europe back off from regulating U.S. tech companies (and that Denmark hand over Greenland) may lead Europeans to ask: Is Europe’s reliance on American tech not just a competitiveness problem but a critical national security vulnerability?” www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...
